Background and approach
That background informs a steady, experienced approach in session. Shay focuses on everyday problems that make life feel harder. He helps people sort through upsetting thoughts, strong emotions, and behaviors that get in the way.
He pays attention to patterns that repeat across relationships and life stages so clients can name what’s happening and choose different responses. Sessions center on clear goals and simple tools. Shay works with clients to set realistic steps, build coping skills, and change self-talk that undermines progress.
He uses approaches such as cognitive behavioral techniques and mindfulness to teach skills people can try between sessions. Clients can expect a practical, down-to-earth style. Shay listens, asks straightforward questions, and suggests exercises that fit daily life.
He aims to help people regain a sense of control and move toward the changes they want. Many people seek help for trauma, parenting stress, mood problems, and substance concerns, and Shay brings experience addressing those issues while tailoring work to each person’s needs.

04Online support
Therapeutic approaches and online care
Shay uses cognitive behavioral methods to help people identify unhelpful thoughts and test new ways of thinking. CBT is practical and skill-based, often helping with anxiety, depression, and mood problems. He also draws on attachment-based ideas to look at how early relationships shape current patterns, which can help with relationship struggles and issues rooted in trust or feeling disconnected.Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. Shay will talk with each person about their goals and preferences, try methods that match those goals, and adjust the plan as progress is made. He emphasizes clear goals, regular check-ins, and short exercises to practice between sessions so the work fits into daily life.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging, which make it easier to fit therapy into a busy routine. Video sessions allow face-to-face conversation, phone sessions can work when bandwidth is limited, live chat suits brief check-ins, and messaging supports ongoing reflection between meetings. These options give flexibility for scheduling, shorter check-ins when needed, and ways to practice skills in the moment.
